UNITED STATES ORAZIO PASCALE, OF WEST NEXT? YORK, NEW" JERSEY.

AIR HEATING AND IMPR-EGNATING APPARATUS,

Application filed November 16'. 7.922. Serial No. 601,418.

: and State'of New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Air Heating and Impregnatmg Apparatus, of

which the following is a specification sufii- ,cient to enable those skilled in the art to which the invention appertains to utilize the same.

The object of 'my invention is to afford a neat, compact and effective device for interior heating and ventilatiomas well as for impregnating the air with various volatile substances, such as disinfectants, deodorizers, perfumes, medicinal preparations, and hygenic purposes generally; and the invention consists in the specific combination, arrangement and construction of parts and appurtenances hereinafter described and claimed.

In the accompanying drawings I, by way of exemplification, illustrate a practical embodiment of the essential features of my invention in preferred form of apparatus. although I do not limit myself to the identical construction and arrangement of parts and appurtenances shown, since changes and modifications may be resorted to in so far as minor details are concerned, without departing from the spirit and intent of my invention in this respect.

With this understanding,

Fig. 1, represents a front elevation of my air heating and impregnating device;

Fig. 2, a side elevation thereof;

Fig. 8, a vertical sectional elevation thereof, taken upon general plane of line 3-3, Fig. 2;

Fig. 4, is a front elevation of the air heat ing coil; and

Fig. 5, an end view thereof;

Fig. 6, is a perspective view of the vaporizing tank;

Fig. 7, is a View of a heating element adapted to the use of gas;

Fig. 8, is a symbolic representation of an electric heating element, suitable for use in my apparatus; and

Fig. 9, is a symbolic representation of a heating element in which fuel may be used in conjunction with the air tubes.

C, is the housing or casing in which my heating and vaporizing means are enclosed, and said casing C, may be of any desired shape or configuration, as may be found most expedient in adapting the device to special use or requirements. The casing C, is provided with a front door D, provided with a glass or other transparent panel d, through which the interior may be inspected. The casing is also provided with a door D, on one side, this doorway being for the insertion or removal of either one of the heating elements H, H, Hhas the case may be, H, representing-a-gas burner; H, an electric resistance coil; and H a muffle or small stove for the combustion of charcoal or other suitable fuel. In Fig. 2,

the gas burner H,-is. shown in position for.

use under the air heating coil A, although either of the other primary heating elements H, H may be substituted therefor with like result.

The air coil A, is fixedly mounted cencentrally in the casing C, and consists preferably of a series of parallel horizontal pipes or fiues a, a, surmounted with a plurality of stand pipes a, a, which latter are detachably supported upon the upper member of the horizontal coil pipes at, as by the telescopic joints shown in Fig. 2, or otherwise, as may be found most expedient. The upper ends of these stand pipes a, a, are formed to communicate with the screened air outlets 0, c, in the front of the casing C, so as to discharge the heated air into a the apartment or enclosure to be warmed thereby. The air to be heated is inducted from extraneous source through the inlet pipe a which may extend to any desired source of air supply, and may be provided with a damper a for the regulation of the inlet. 7

The products of combustion, if any, pro- E, is an evaporating chamber for containing water to humidify the air of the apart ment or enclosure in which my heating apparatus is installed, and may be used also to impregnate the atmosphere with perfumery, volatile disinfectants, or the like,.for purification, sanitation, etc., as may be found most expedient under conditions and requirements of use, This evaporating chamher or reservoir E, is mounted on hinges e, e, which admit of its being; swung in and.

out of position as related to the casing C; and it is provided with a gauge 6', for indicating the liquid level therein. Suitable openings 6 6 are formed in the top of the casing C, and in the upper part of the door D on which the receptacle (E) for liquid is mounted, to insure the escape of the volatile emanations into the surrounding atmosphere.

My apparatus is neat and compact in form and arrangement, and may be embellished externally to render it an attractive as well as a utilitarian article of furniture.

What I claim as my invention'and desire to secure by Letters Patent is,

1. A device of the character described, comprising a casing, a heating element supported on the bottom thereof, an air inlet pipe extended into said casing, and an air coil supported in the casing by said inlet comprising a casinfi,

2. A- device of the character described, 7

a heating element in the lower portion t reof, an air inlet pipe extended into said casing, an air coil in said casing connected with said air inlet pipe and having a plurality of nipples, stand pipes on said nipples extended upwardly in said casing, and a discharge pipe for the products of combustion arranged over said stand pipes and having its under side open, the upper portion of the casing having openings with which the upper ends of said stand pipes communicate.
